　　(2)引詞IT用于強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)中

　　For example: John wore his best suit to the dance last night.(約翰昨晚他穿著他最好的一套衣服去參加舞會(huì))

　　It was his best suit (that) John wore to the dance last night.

　　It was last night (that) John wore his best suit to the dance.

　　③表語與賓語補(bǔ)語偶爾也可為被強(qiáng)調(diào)的部分.但通常情況下,表語一般不可用作被強(qiáng)調(diào)的部分.

　　For example:

　　It was a doctor that he eventually became.(他最后成了一個(gè)醫(yī)生)

　　It’s dark green that we’ve painted the kitchen.(我們把廚房漆成了深綠色)

　�、軓�(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)的時(shí)態(tài)一般應(yīng)該一致.但也有例外的例子.

　　I was my two sisters who knew her best(是我的兩個(gè)姐妹最了解他.)

　　For exceptional example:

　　It is Miss Williams who enjoyed reading novels as a pastime. (是威廉姆斯小姐以讀小說來消遣.)

　　It is these very novels that Miss Williams enjoyed reading as a pastime.(威廉姆斯小姐作為消遣所讀的小說就是這些.)

　�、輳�(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)不但可以用于獨(dú)立句中,也可以用在從句之中.

　　For example:

　　It deserves attention that it is especially the verb to do which is often found in the active voice.(應(yīng)該注意, 特別是行為動(dòng)詞常用在主動(dòng)語態(tài)中.)

　　I suspected it was on her orders that you were bringing him here.(我懷疑你是遵照她的吩咐要把他帶到這兒來的)

　　He told me that it was liberation that brought about a complete change in his life. (他告訴我是解放才使他的生活有了翻天覆地的變化.)

　　⑥強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)中的that 與who在非正式文體中可以省略.有時(shí)還可以省去句首的It is (was).

　　For example:

　　I suspected it was on her orders you were bringing him here.(我懷疑你是遵照她的吩咐要把他帶到這兒來的)

　　A good, honest trade you are learning, Sir Peter! (彼得爵士,你學(xué)得是一種很好而誠實(shí)的一行啊!)

　�、邚�(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu)中的被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分有時(shí)可放在句首.

　　For example:

　　Now was it that his life was done, and the fate which he could not escape was upon him.(就在這時(shí),他的生命完結(jié)了,他所逃脫不了的命運(yùn)降臨了.)

　�、郔t is(was)之后可有一個(gè)以上的被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分.

　　For example:

　　It was she who was lying in the corridor and the stranger who bent over her. “Did I faint?” she asked.(是她躺在過道上,是那個(gè)陌生人在俯視她.“我暈倒了嗎?”她問道.)
